Sort Of! OK, Not At All!]]> We're loath to admit we've fallen behind on new episodes of The Simpsons, so we're extremely grateful to the reader who pointed the following out to us: On Sunday's show, after a fairly hilarious sequence in which Homer engages in an illicit affair with a gyro cone (which, for $4300, could basically give you all the unsafe satisfaction you could handle), the portly paterfamilias then puts a happy ending on his marathon session of rotisserie lovemaking with a trip to Pudding on the Ritz. His order? "One Butterscotch Stallion."

While it failed to evoke its majestic, sandy-maned namesake in anything but the most literal terms, the mention still gave us an ever-so-tiny taste of what it must feel like to make the leap from our blandly live-action coil into the glorious, bug-eyed bliss of the animated Springfield universe.

The NY Post is reporting that Wilson showed up at a private party in Miami over the weekend, where he was snapped attempting to dance across the water of a pool by a local paparazzo named Manny Hernandez. And while we tend to trust the celebrity over the pap in situations like this, it is worth noting that this is offense number two in Wilson's post-rehab paparazzo bullying file. As you might recall, he and Fotog Fighter king Woody Harrelson got into a brawl with the press in Peru back in December.

Seems that on a joint visit to their co-owned family shelter way down south, Owen and Woody launched a Die Hardesque assault against two Peruvian cameramen. And according to the report, Owen even masterminded a quasi-kidnapping. But even if both stories are bogus (Manny says his dog ate the photos), his rep did tell Page Six that he was, indeed, at the party in question on Friday, which was sponsored by a liquor company. Heading south of the border with Woody and causing a fuss at Patron-funded events? Seems even a repeat performance as the Butterscotch Stallion might be a better way to show up on the gossip pages.
